@Hitch: yes, I have an NCX file, but I don't see what that has to do with Jeff Bezos's ability to interrupt my reading of a book with his Other Books Like This advert.
NJ: If I were a betting woman, I'd say that the NCX holds the key. It's not hard to program some sort of simple algo to look for filenames, esp. in professionally made or published books, e.g., "author.html/xhtml" or such. OR, hell, look for the first file that is6isn't named Chapter after chapter 1 or chap1 or.... Crap, the programmer dudes here can tell you 100 ways to do that.
